Coding for Kids: Learn to Code Minecraft Command Blocks - Video Game Design Coding Software - Computer Programming Courses, Ages 9+ (PC, Mac Compatible)

Although the webpage suggested an actual course (book), the product delivered certainly was not what expected to give to my child.

We found this to be easy to follow and understand the instructions. It’s basically an online class/interactive workbook. I don’t know if I’d recommend it for younger children. It really depends on your understanding of computers since it’s computer coding. I definitely think it’s way overpriced for what it is.

I ordered this for my son and he loves it. It is easy for him to use as a beginner and I like that there is tech support. This is a great gift to give to any child who has an interest in learning to code.

Got this for my kids, and since they already had the game, they were up and running directly.

I got this for my son because he likes both Minecraft and coding. What I did not know is that this is based on Minecraft Java Edition, which my son does not have. So now he cant even use this until he gets Minecraft Java Edition. It would have been nice to know this ahead of time, so I could have set up to have that as well.

My 8 y/o is a Minecraft nerd, and just generally very interested in nerdy tech stuff, so this seemed perfect for him. He had asked me about command blocks before, but my computer expertise doesnt stretch far beyond Excel/VBA and the EHR system our hospital uses.

Our 13yo son lives and breathes Minecraft and we thought this would be a fun way to convert his playtime into learning time. Clear instructions. Im a software engineer by training and this is a nice intro to coding.

Minecraft command blocks are sources of unlimited power or control depending on the code behind them. Video tutorial style seems to fit what kids are used to with YouTube. I wouldnt ask my 13 yo to go figure it out, I would stay available to help unstuck him when he overlooks an error.

I thought this was a great idea and could work well. I do networking as a profession and never got into coding which I really wanted to. I could never find the time so I tried this to get started. The only thing is it did not keep my interested long enough to stick with it. If I have time, I may take this up again in the future.

I liked that this came as an actual card instead of just a digital code. I got this to use with one of my homeschool kids.
